[MOTOROLA RAZR 2019 HANDS-ON / MOTOROLA RAZR 2020 HANDS-ON]
The re-imagined Motorola Razr is part flashy technological feat and part practical portability perk, sold at a premium price despite some forgettable specs. If you’re thinking that sounds familiar, then you much have been around for the first Motorola RAZR launch back in 2004! Despite its high price, that RAZR product family would go on to sell 130 million units over the next four years, going down in the history books as the most successful flip phone of all time. Can Motorola capture lightning in a bottle again? I recently got a sneak peek at the company's flexible-display flagship branded simply "razr" - and while my enthusiasm for the foldable category doubtless colors my impression, I came away hopeful for the Motorola brand name for the first time in four years.

![Revisiting The Motorola Razr - Now With Android 10! [Into The Fold Episode 2]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/iyWn-Lb_w_E/mqdefault.jpg)
Its been years since that "I want it feeling" for a cell phone: I want this.
what about the Asus ROG Phone 2?
I just bought it a month ago and it's *amazing*.
I want it !!
Same, i loved my Razr.
the design is amazing but the flaws are in the hardware and its bad, really bad if u compare it to the iphone or samsung...i guess it boils down to are u willing to put up with the downgrades for a novelty cool designed phone at an inflated price?
@@fuehnix it can't fold boomer
I'm so tired of repeatedly and angrily smashing a red dot on a glass screen to end a call. I NEED the satisfaction of just closing the phone.
Well... guess I’m also buying a ticket to the Razer Hype Train.
Does closing it end the call though?
You won't need to press or fold anything to end a call with that battery....it will just power off for you.
Especially when your phone gets old and the proximity sensor stops working. Then the screen won't turn on during a call and you can't end calls anymore. XD
Why invent a new type of phone to end calls when you have a nice clicky button in most decent phones already. Besides I wouldn't smash it shut, any marginally large spec of dust or sand will make an indentation on that soft plastic
@@espirite 😆😆😆😆😆😆
I think the second generation of this model is going to be great...
Yeah, this gen feels like they wanted to make sure everything fundamental about this was working and see how it sold that way, and the next gen will really be where they pull out al, the stops
MKBHD: This thing has only one camera
MrMobile: The Selfie Camera is just fine
Exactly. Though at 1500 bucks it's way too costly. I'll wait for like 3rd generation when the flaws are ironed out and it's selling for $500
MKBHD said he is buying one though
@@jasongooden917 He'll recover his 1500 bucks easily by making a first impressions video of the retail unit and then the profit from the review video.
Yeh there is no selfie camera but it has a selfie camera when you told it it becomes a selfie camera
Salman Malek Did you actually watch the video? There definitely is a front-facing camera, and I don’t mean the one on the outside. There’s a camera on the notch too.
Honestly the best implementation of a foldable screen that I’ve seen so far. Will legit think about buying in a couple years when the price comes down a little (theoretically) and they work out some of the kinks in the first couple generations of hardware. Really exciting stuff!!
@Park Justin foldable phones are inevitable. The GP will eat them up when they are affordable and durable in about a year
mtwolf55 wait for china make it. Their phone is affordable
@Park Justin dont think so, galaxy fold two is gonna be like this too
@@RemixedVoice People are ready to compromise on durability. Ever dropped a smartphone on concrete from a decent height? Shattered screen/back. Ever dropped a Nokia 3310? Battery door pops off, battery falls out, put it back together, and it works like new.
@@birtalanlorant5572 at least a foldable design protects the inside main display. Look at the Nintendo 3ds and how much punishment it can take VS the psp or vita.
This might be the return of small and easy to hold phones
I hope so. I like all the perks of the 1k phones but I'd like to be able to use one hand.
do yall have small hands or something
Seriously ...tired searching for a new phone less than freaking 6 inch screen size nowadays !!
Amen
No the market for small phones is really small people love big phones and Apple mad that mistake back in 2013 with iPhone 5s
Literally what we wanted when we said a foldable smartphone
THIS CAME OUT OF NOWHERE. My jaw dropped when I saw this. Amazing
I thought I'm gonna be disappointed with this one, but I wasn't.
This is a perfect 2019 render for a clamshell phone. Wow!
Well its priced at 1500 dollars.
but that price isnt because of the specs but for the folding display...it will come down when folding display becomes a common place
@@manhasnoname20yearsago67 because a folding display is expensive, it's an uncommon tech this year.
@@manhasnoname20yearsago67 well flexible phone on a daily handled device like a smartphone is new concept, the yield for successfully made screen to phone gotta be way lower than the usual flat brick design. I really am fine with the high cost, but only for now.
@@manhasnoname20yearsago67 new tech, only on limited production runs and only by a few companies, and most of THOUSE companies have flagship phones of thier own.
I will say it'll be nice reclaiming the pocket space that we've lost over the years from large smartphones. Perfect for vest pockets.
THIS
except when leaning over a toilet seat.
You lost me at vest. Unless you're a hipster.
And shirt pockets. If the pocket has a button, this thing is so small you can probably close it. If not, somebody will make a back-only case of rubber or silicon. That generally has a high enough friction rating to stop it sliding out when you lean over. Just make sure to put the phone back facing AWAY FROM your body, so that the friction surface locks onto the shirt pocket cloth with gravity helping :-)
Or shirt pockets
Motorola engineers: yeah do ehatever with it, it's durable
Samsung engineers: don't push the screen too hard, it's sensitive. Don't even think about bringing it into a room that has dust
Coco 11000 the original Razor was a tank. We will see if this one can live up to its namesake.
Nokia: hold my brick
And then the RAZR ended up arguably the weakest of the bunch. 🤣
This is a high end luxury phone. Few people can afford it, it does take space in your pocket. But still offer full display!!! AMAZING
They should have released this one for those who want an entry level AND a spec'd out version at the fold's price for the die hard.
Clearly the spec limitation is due to the form factor not the price
They said the reason this didn't pack an 855 was heat and power efficiency, not price.
This phone is for the ladies that don't care about specs and want the form factor.
Good point. I bet if the sales are good they will for sure.
Just wait for the Razr Pro lol
Somehow make that thing fit 3600mah, wireless charging, and a similar camera set up of the S10... And we'd be cooking up dreams
Jack.. and I'll jizz my pants
But tech ain't that good to fit all of that in a reallt thin phone...
@@MyBacon92 why does it have to be super thin? I get that they want to make it the same thickness as the original, but honestly I'd be ok with a standard sized phone that folds in half. I have a Razer phone 2 that's like 8mm thick. I'd be fine with having a folded phone in my pocket that's 16-20mm thick. It would still be smaller than a standard wallet. I love this design but think they missed a trick by not making it thicker to have a decent battery in it.
That the next galaxy fold.
@@JD86Vintage it's not that they want to make it the same size. If it's not thin then that beats the point of having a foldable. PORTABILITY. Then it'll just be like the galaxy fold.
Michael's way of describing any phone is too damned good.

i've had my razr for over a year now. no dramas no issues what so ever. i still love it and ppl still are amazed with it
Great review!! For nostalgias sake, this may be one I have to bite the bullet and buy. I haven’t even been on Android since 2016, but this? This is something that would make me want to delve back into that world. I loved my original Razr back in 04-05 (high school days and I still have it ) and everyone had one!! It was great: simple but elegant. I’m looking forward to seeing full reviews on it to render a decision but right now, it’s the kind of folding screen I’d want today.
This is how you do a foldable phone and
Mr. Mobile this is the only hands-on video of RAZR I was waiting for ❤️
DANG! That shot at 7:41 is CLASSIC cool guy with a flip phone. Bravo 👏👏👏👏
As someone who had the original Razr, I want this new one too. I probably will wait for the second generation but I'm really happy they're releasing this throwback styling.
Has more wow factor and design than anything else I'm in
I always like the little disclaimer section at the end
It's 3 times what I want to spend ON a phone, but it's so much closer to what I want FROM a phone.
All phones close like that if you bend it hard enough
Every phone owned by JerryRigEverything is a flip phone.
Lol!!!
Every time I see his videos I think about Tony Starks
The way the screen collapses in when being closed is how I have imagined foldable smartphones/devices would work all this while. I had thought it was not achievable but now Motorola has proven it can be done. Doing it that way would deal with a crease.
Ingenious idea. I tried and couldn't think of a good way of folding a display in half without causing a sharp crease. The way Samsung implemented their fold is unacceptable in my opinion with that big gap when closed. And still creased display when unfolded. 👎👎
The tech to make a foldable screen like this made of plastic has been around for a decade now. There's been many prototypes built, making it with glass is the difficult part. Plastic folds naturally lol
A proof of concept.. let it cook for a couple more years.
@laser325 that one was just a joke. Can't compare it with this.
@laser325 That wasn't an innovation like this one, it was just for the sake of the meme.

@@kylereddy3849 unless people stop paying for expensive phones they will drop the price.
@@kylereddy3849 this phone is always likely to outsell it's production therefore customers will always have to pay the premium margins will always be high and the company will feel that pricing is justified by profits.

"... intentional fusion of nostalgia and bleeding-edge technology!" - only MrMobile can invent such phrases! Bravo! Excellent take this, Michael!
I’m happy you like his description but that’s not his “take” on the phone. The phone is literally the same design as an old phone called the Razor, which makes it nostalgic, but has foldable screen which is also figuratively bleeding edge or cutting edge. And that got put together into a single phone, a fusion. So yeah, that’s not inventing a phrase, that’s called an apt and excellent description.
@@sidjtd I've used the word invent in a figurative sense, not in a literal sense. I find Michael's use of some phrases very unique and delightful! I adore them! And I seldom see other tech-reviewers use such phrasing. Even the tech-companies do not use them! That's why I used " invent". But it is perfectly okay if you disagree with it.
6:09 I wouldn't call those specs forgettable. I'll have a very hard time forgetting about a 2510 mAh battery.
Joseph Zoeller if they had that special display ghz thing that apple did on the watch that might solve the problem partially don’t you think?
I believe that this is your best video on your channel in a long time, the editing, music choice, narration sound quality, footage and subject, is everything to me. Keep up the good work, I look forward to the million subs!
The galaxy needs that hinge, I think it’s the most impressive part about this thing
Patented, it basically mimicks watch band hinge with a little twist
I believe Moto owns the patent...
Samsung revealed that their next foldable will feature a clamshell design.
The hinge feature will likely be different, but I'm interested in seeing how the next iteration of foldables will look and function.
Yknow what? I'm glad the RAZR is back. The old days of Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola duking it all out on making the most quirky smartphone line design is way more fun than todays' flat brick norm that the iPhone started.
Welcome to the future, RAZR.
My first phone was a RAZR, definitely wouldn't mind buying the 2019 version to relive nostalgia

I literally didn't even notice it as chin like I would equate to with others phones until I saw it mentioned as a chin.
Apple has a huge chin. They have the same design for 3 years now.
Honestly, i'm not even mad about the chin, this is a totally different form factor, can't be compared to flat rectangles that have been refined for 12 years
@@Totone56 i agree bud. Am actually excited for something new in the world of smart phones. I grew up as well to the original Razr flip phone so its also nostalgic. I was just poking fun at it... ;)
@@kaz3d Well, on the other hand, can't say you're wrong haha !
But everyone seems to say the phone is as thick as a normal one when it's closed, so maybe the chin isn't actually this fat, can't wait to see it IRL :)
Okay, this might get me away from my iPhone. I loved my V3. You didn't show us the retro mode though. It looks so cool!
I wasn't aware of a retro mode until I saw your comment. Gotta say it's pretty cool
What the best thing about not being super intent on having the flashiest and newest thing is that you don’t get first generation problems. I think folding screens are cool, but I’m more than happy to let other people deal with the teething issues related to new technology.
I sold my Xbox to buy a razr when I was in junior high. I remember how cool I felt and looks I’d get from the girls while using it. Nostalgia is a powerful selling tool.

@@------Blind-Bat------- oh crap didn't realize that
I wanted one, and can afford one, since they will release unlocked versions in Canada, but the specs are a let down. SD710 really.. for 2020 $CAD.
When it comes to smart phones, ppl are always focusing on the specs and the performance. It makes it feel like if a phone with a price that is comparably higher than other phones that have the same specs, it is just overpriced and not worth buying. But design is a big, important part as well which should never be ignored or underrated. Designed clothes are with higher prices, designed shoes are with higher prices, chic looking laptops are with higher prices and ppl are just fine with it. So the new Razr has every right to set a $1500 price since it is a great design and deserves a price that says that.
As for ppl who don't like the phone, everyone has a different taste. You don't have to convince me the tablet-phone folding style is better and I'm not trying to sell you the idea that Razr style is better. The more styles we have, the more interesting the industry will become, and the more choices we will have.
@@anotherDEADMAN I agree with you. And I as well think specs and performance are important. That's why I usually go with flagship phone instead of mid rangers. But I was simply explaining why I think it is ok for Motorola to set a high price for this phone basically just for the design. Cuz design is worth money as well. I believe that they can make a phone like this with high end chips and larger battery but the price will go way up since the cost will be much more as well.
Give them more time, the price tag is temporary. It's like Nokia releasing 3310 again, marketing stunt. If enough interest follows, they will optimise their manufacturing process and will be able to make next generation razr at a much lower price.
Gonna get it whn the price drops, its a must have for OG rzr users
On one hand, with $1500, I could buy a smart phone, smart watch, and still have some cash left over. On the other hand, none of those devices are the 2020 Motorola Razr. To get the future now, you'll pay the price. To some it's worth it, to others it's not. It's disappointing to see so many in the tech community bashing each other over whether a truly unique device is worth it or not. Yes it's a first generation device but those that buy it know what they're purchasing. There's no point in harassing people over the value of a device.
The current argument over the value of foldable devices reminds me of when the 1st gen Apple Watch released. In Twitter posts, RUclips comments, and in real life, people were being harassed for having purchased the 1st gen smartwatch. People arguing that it was a waste of money, the device category was dead on arrival, and countless other sorts of things. Do the people that harass these early adopters not think that these things were thought about before they made their purchase? That's the whole point of a first gen device. You take a risk supporting a new emerging technology. Sometimes they succeed and sometimes they fail. But in the end, regardless of how it fairs, the industry learns from it.
I expect that foldables will face the same criticisms that the 1st gen Apple Watch did. But you know what, it's hard to go anywhere without seeing an Apple Watch on at least one person's wrist.
Sincerely,
A 1st Gen Apple Watch owner
TL;DR Don't harass people over what they like. People that buy first gen devices know exactly what they're getting themselves into.
No joke: if everyone were this measured and wise, comment sections would be far more pleasant. Thank you for your thoughts!
MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Thank you. It means a lot coming from you. Been watching since the PocketNow days and it’s been a blast watching all of your videos since then. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but you have a unique style that I haven’t found with any other tech reviewers. So, I’m really looking forward to your review of the Razr when it releases. Until then, keep doing what you’re doing!
so true....its specially annoying when people complain about the price of a 1st gen product which the company is takeing a risk with. Its a 1st gen product and there is nothing on the market like this...if the company doesnt place it above the trending price then that company will only be considered a fool, especially when the technology itself is new which would have cost the company a huge capital, ton of R&D and time. Before complaining about price atleast wait till 2nd or 3rd gen of the device
This is so unnecessary. I absolutely want one!
I think it's VERY necessary. Imagine having the ability to fold your phablet.
It's an overpriced POS...but hey, you do you. 😁😆
7:00 STRONG Tony Stark vibes.
This is the first time ive been hyped for a phone in years, and genuinely the first one i am willing to fork over the money for just because i missed the original line of RAZR phones
You should really do its long term review just like samsung galaxy fold when it comes out for sale

I do agree! THE LEGEND IS HERE......
The chipset is a few generations behind the current standard for triple the price..
@@JXHNDRX Hopefully they'll offer an updated version in a year.
Everyone seems really confused.. the RAZR was always a phone for people who called and text mainly. It was a great phone for its design. It’s never going to compete with the tech of top of the line phones. That’s not why you would buy this phone.
I absolutely would buy this as I LOVED my old RAZR and genuinely was gutted when it eventually shat itself.
Can’t wait to hang up on someone by closing the phone like the old days! Yuuuus!!
When I first saw flexible/curved displays on TVs I prayed that they would one day create a folding smartphone so I could relive the glory days of my Motorola Razr flip-phone. Now they have! I just have to wait until they make them available in the UK with UK carriers. I want one!!!
Great video. Instead of whining about the bad lighting conditions at the event, Mr Mobile used those conditions to his advantage to get some really cool looking shots.

7:06 Got some Jack sparrow action going on there Michael. :)
And that's what's up. MOTOROLA back in the game.
Honestly, the price is just right for the first proper foldable screen phone, the technology behind the lcd panel and the hinge design is really innovative. And this phone is obviously not about being the fastest one or having the best camera. It also looks remarkably finished, not a rushed, half-baked thing. Kudos to Motorola for being serious about it and delivering something good.
WOAH!! That looks amazing!!! Keep it up Mr. Mobile!!! Much love!
Too expensive, but also too nostalgic.
Perfectly balanced as it should be
Motorola really charges you $1000 more for that nostalgia. Thats bullshit
Absolutely love this device..$1500 well worth it I do recommend the sleeve as well
Apple: Pro Stand cost $999 Motorola: hold my hinge
I really liked the idea and the implementation. The best foldable smartphone so far.
I hope they patent it coz they invented it.
This is how a foldable phone shall be, I want a 7" foldable this way with bigger battery👍
Finally something different. We haven't had a new phone design since everyone started copying the touch screen from iphone.

There goes my nostalgia. I love the Razr. My first beloved flip phone. As a devout iPhone user I definitely wouldn't mind crossing over to Android with this bad boy! ✅
I pay ten dollars a month to keep service on my obsolete flip phone. I love it. I use it to make calls when I know I will be chatting for a long time.
Mrmobile trending in 2019. Nice
This phone looks so goooood Motorola is back baby!!!
1500$? nah
@@SnazTasticKobe sure it's expensive but as someone who doesn't take many pictures and uses their phone mainly for consuming media and taking calls, this is checking a lot of boxes
@@SnazTasticKobe also, people in this community will look at the specs and turn away immediately. But the mass market will just see this as a cheeper alternative to the fold. This is what this new segment NEEDS to take off, so I'm all for a few compromises to get this into more hands
@@anthonyw.5375 just get a oneplus, samsung or iphone, better worth
@@anthonyw.5375 this isnt the same as galaxy fold or any sort lol

I can't tell you how excited it makes me to see a focus on hardware starting to come back.
